About Wyoming Tech (Wyoming Technical Institute)

Here is a brief history of WyoTech (also referred to as Wyoming Technical Institute or Wyoming Tech).

“Wyoming Tech” opened in Laramie, Wyoming in 1966. There are now 7 campuses across the United states. The campuses offer education within the automotive, diesel, collision/refinishing, street rod & custom fabrication, chassis fabrication & high performance engines, custom upholstery, motorcycle and marine mechanics, aviation, HVAC, and plumbing industries.

“Wyoming Tech” programs employs hands-on learning in an environment featuring the same equipment used in the workplace. The Daytona Beach campus features motorcycle and marine mechanics instruction. Their new facility will allow them to graduate over 1600 students per year from that one location.

“Wyoming Tech” is the National Technical School of the National Hot Rod Association. In 2007 WyoTech will graduate over 10,000 students and help them gain employment in their industry of choice.

Thanks for your interest! We don’t have programs focused exclusively on welding, but some of our programs do include welding, and becoming a welder may be a possible career. For example, our Motorsports Chassis Fabrication program includes MIG and TIG welding and our Collision Finishing Technology program teaches squeeze-type resistance spot welding. You didn’t mention which campus you might be interested in, and not all of our campuses offer the same programs, so give them a call to find out which programs they offer that might also be a fit.
